Kano Govt Fires Back, Rubbishes Claims Of Administrative Paralysis.

Published

on

The Kano State Government has rejected claims that its administration is experiencing paralysis, describing the allegations as unfounded and misleading.....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶

In a statement, the Secretary to the State Government, Umar Faruk Ibrahim, clarified that the recent directive by Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf, which asked Ministries, Departments and Agencies (MDAs) to temporarily halt the submission of files to his office, should not be misconstrued as an administrative shutdown.

He explained that the measure was a deliberate and lawful step taken to ensure fiscal discipline and compliance with due process, particularly as the state was transitioning between budget cycles.

Ibrahim stressed that the directive was issued at the end of December, when the 2025 Appropriation Law had lapsed and the new budget was still undergoing legislative consideration, making restraint in executive approvals both necessary and responsible.

According to him, the action was aimed at preventing unauthorised spending, illegal financial commitments and potential audit or legal challenges, noting that public finance principles prohibit new expenditures without a valid appropriation law.

The SSG emphasised that government activities have continued without disruption, with essential services in security, healthcare, education, sanitation and other critical sectors remaining fully functional under existing approvals.

He added that the directive only imposed a temporary pause on new discretionary matters pending alignment with the new fiscal framework.

Describing reports of administrative paralysis as a misrepresentation, Ibrahim said the decision reflects foresight, discipline and respect for the rule of law, which are hallmarks of responsible governance.

He assured the public that once the ongoing transitional administrative reviews are concluded, further directives will be issued to guide the next phase of executive operations.

Ibrahim reaffirmed the state government’s commitment to transparency, efficient service delivery and prudent management of public resources in the best interest of Kano residents.

“Explosive Revelation As Nwosu Claims Bala Was Present At All ADC Meetings”.

Published

on

The founder and pioneer National Chairman of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), Ralph Nwosu, has maintained that a prominent party member, Bala Nafiu, was actively involved in all party activities, rejecting claims that he was sidelined amid the ongoing internal crisis.....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶

reports that Nwosu made the clarification during an interview with Punch, where he addressed growing tensions and disputes within the party.

Responding to questions on Bala’s participation in key meetings, Nwosu insisted that records showed he was present throughout.

He said, “One hundred per cent, yes. There was no meeting he missed. The records are there. INEC records are there.”

He further stated that evidence of Bala’s involvement had been submitted during court proceedings.

“When Bala went to court claiming something, one of the documents presented was from INEC. INEC itself confirmed that he participated in everything,” he added.

However, Nwosu expressed surprise over what he described as a change in position by the electoral body.

“But recently, we heard that INEC had gone back on what they presented when Bala started this troublesome thing,” he said.

The ADC founder also alleged that the party’s internal crisis was being influenced by external interests attempting to create the impression of division.

“What is happening is that people are being induced to appear as if there is a crisis in ADC,” he said.

He questioned the idea that a few individuals could represent a faction in a large political organisation.

“How can one individual be a faction in a group that is now five million persons?” he asked.

Nwosu also criticised Dumebi Kachikwu, accusing him of trying to exaggerate his influence within the party.

“As far as Dumebi is concerned, he is using anything that would make it look as if he influences ADC,” he said.

He further alleged that financial influence from political actors was worsening the situation, claiming that opposition activities were being targeted.

Despite the tensions, Nwosu maintained that those involved in the dispute represent only a very small fraction of the party’s large membership base.

“ADC Not Built On Transactions – Nwosu Fires Strong Warning”.

Published

on

The founder and pioneer National Chairman of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), Ralph Nwosu, has dismissed allegations that party leaders were involved in power-sharing deals during ongoing negotiations with emerging political groups.....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶

reports that he made the clarification in an interview with Punch, where he responded to claims that certain stakeholders were being excluded from coalition discussions.

Reacting to suggestions that some factions, including a group linked to Senator David Mark, were being favoured, Nwosu rejected any notion of political bargaining or transactional arrangements within the party.

He said, “Sharing what? I have never been a transactional leader. As far as ADC is concerned, as far as this coalition is concerned, nobody did any transaction.”

He maintained that all members remain equal stakeholders in the party, regardless of political alignments.

“We are part of the party, and if by God’s grace, we win the election, we’ll be part of the government. From what we were before, that’s a big plus,” he added.

Nwosu referenced past presidential aspirants under the party to support his claim that the ADC does not operate on financial inducements or backroom deals.

He said, “We gave Pat Utomi the party to run for president. Ask him if there was any transaction. Instead, most leaders of the party were contributing to his election.”

He also pointed to the involvement of former President Olusegun Obasanjo, insisting that no financial exchange took place during such engagements.

“When the former president Obasanjo came, ask him if Chief Nwosu or any executive of the party had come to him to collect a dime. None,” he said.

The ADC founder criticised the growing belief that politics is driven mainly by money, warning that such thinking undermines national progress.

He added that the party remains focused on nation-building rather than personal or financial interests, stressing that this mindset has become a challenge in the political space.

Nwosu reaffirmed that the ADC is built on integrity and a strong ideological foundation, insisting that its principles remain unchanged.

According to him, despite the pressure and financial difficulties, he rejected the offer and chose to remain committed to his principles.

“I was approached with cash by members of a political party to alter my content. They said they were going to change my life, that I’m earning crumbs, you know, give me dollars,” he said.

He explained that he was told to come to Abuja where he would be “changed” financially, but insisted he could not compromise his values for money.

He further noted that people close to him have also faced similar approaches but have refused, stressing that his circle is made up of individuals who uphold strong personal values.
